[lubuntu-users] [lubuntu-devel] consistent QA help really needed

[rapt]

I use to run Lubuntu 14.04 on my T41. I tried to install Bionic using
the daily iso downloaded two days ago. I'm really fine with 14.04, maybe
I could upgrade to 16.04, but since my old machine has a 1400 mhz
processor and just 1256M ram, I use it to experiment other distros. In
my pc I run Ubuntu 14.04, I did not made upgrade to 16.04 because I have
many works to finish with Ardour, and I verified that Ardour 3 does not
see my old Ardour sessions. I tried too to install Lubit 6, but it did
not even start installation nor 'try'.

I read that someone tried
